Claude Coleman Jr. has sat behind the drum kit for Skunk, Chocolate Genius, Elysian Fields and Eagles of Death Metal. But he's been Ween's acrobatic timekeeper ever since Gene and Dean toured in support of Pure Guava. That's thirteen years, mang. And while Ween's brand of eccentricity has allowed him to stretch his chops in every style from speed metal, funk and reggae to cheeky Nashville put-on, the Jersey City native has always been a closet songwriter himself. When he swaps sticks for a guitar and microphone, he fronts Amandla, an exceedingly soulful outfit named after the Zulu word for "power." Coleman needed to muster every ounce of strength that he had in 2003, following a near-fatal car accident that left him with brain injuries and a shattered pelvis; he spent two months in a wheelchair and another seven in physical rehab. But there's no keeping a good man down. Unveiling The Full Catastrophe, the followup to Falling Alone, Amandla's debut, Ween's sanest member steps into the spotlight tonight free of chocolate, cheese, and, perhaps, painkillers.

Joan Zen
There is a serious classic rootsy rock feel to the self-released debut by the Hamilton (by way of San Diego) band Joan Zen. The effort hinges on Deborah Hicks' soulful, sultry delivery and is at its best when her vocals are pinned up against straight-ahead rock riffs and drums in tunes like "If I Could" and "Casually Acquainted." I can just picture bar stools swiveling away from the televised ballgame and toward the stage as Hicks belts out her finest Chrissie Hynde impression on "Acquainted": "As I'm sifting through the memories of you, it won't let me be until we meet again."
When Intramission downshifts to a coffeehouse groove, it continues to evoke a mature and refined sound. "Getting Out" and "I Ever Never" have hints of the Cowboy Junkies, and "Don't Call Me Friend" is a multi-layered, jazz-infused ballad that plays with its timing and vocal harmonies to great effect.
Deborah is joined on the album by her husband/drummer/keyboardist/saxophonist Jason, and the two are reportedly in the studio working on another release scheduled for later this year. Here's hoping the next has the same old-school energy and seasoned hand as their first. (Skylar Browning)
Joan Zen plays Sean Kelly's Saturday, May 21, at 9 PM. Cover TBA.
Last of the Juanitas
In the Dirt
Wäntage USA
There's something terrifying and delicious about Last of the Juanita's newest album. "Baghdad," the first track, launches listeners down a horror highway of dirge feedback marked by the evil anticipation embodied in The Melvins' "Boris." Bassist Lana Rebel's vocals add music-box terror that seems to have traveled from the lonely reaches of Appalachia. It's a deeply odd conglomeration for a band settled in the Northwest (previously San Diego), but a brilliant way to set the mood for the avalanche of rock that follows.
Heavy with power chords and marked by distinctly variant time signatures, the album barrels forward like a boxer blessed with the agility and speed of a hobo spider. Rebel and guitarist Maurice Giles take turns singing (combining forces for the dirty-rock sass of "Smashed by Nothing"), while drummer Johnny Schier nails each piece with deft and violent force. "Took the Short Train" is a gem, with Giles worked up into a paranoid sermon steeped in the cautionary flavor of something by Universal Order of Armageddon.
In the Dirt isn't for everyone—it's dark and mathy and it won't reduce stress. But for those who love murky, driving rock, it's a real prize. (Erika Fredrickson)
Prince Jaeo
In his latest release, Missoula native Prince Jaeo continues to take on the baffling task of mixing southcore-style gangsta rap with local anecdotes. In the process of colliding these two worlds, he alienates just about every self-proclaimed hip-hop head in this town. He acknowledges this estrangement in songs like "Payback," and by the end of the album it's clear he doesn't really care.
Lyrically, the album is rife with typical gangsta elements, as in "Money Motivated," which is concerned with time-honored pastimes like selling crack, spending money and bringing guns to social gatherings. "Revenge," on the other hand, has Jaeo rhyming about killing the family members of those who have wronged him and filling his trunk with severed heads. By this point, it should be clear to readers whether or not they'll find Jaeo appealing.
Production credits on the album go mostly to Max Allyn. The cheap synths and rapid, digital-sounding beats are appropriate to the southcore vibe, but the album could use some influence from the likes of DJ Paul—the EQ and compression work needs improvement, and the vocals are way too loud in the mix, drowning out the basslines.
Still, this is a homegrown effort, so you have to give Jaeo, Allyn and the crew props for completing another original album, and for taking chances in the genre. (Adam Fangsrud)
So Many Dynamos
When I Explode
Skrocki Records
So Many Dynamos have a surprise up their sleeve. No, it's not their clever palindrome name, nor is it that their newest album, When I Explode, nearly clones the musical intonations of their major influence, The Dismemberment Plan—critics and indie rock connoisseurs alike have been heralding these particular facts since the album was born. The real surprise arises after a few listens to the album, once you look past the pop-punk angst of vocalist Ryan Ballew and the familiar weaving of catchy hooks: clinging to these innocuous but all-too-customary musical elements are innovative textures including disco junctures, Miles Davis jazzscapes and Moog-induced laser breakdowns.
Ballew is not a bad singer by any means, but songs like "The Pros of Being a Con Artist" and "Let's Laugh about it Later" rely heavily on the affected annunciation that makes bands like Simple Plan so annoying. Ballew, alas, redeems himself with lively anthem-like choruses and songs like "Heat/Humidity," which captures an edgy and intangible malaise.
So Many Dynamos may be derivative, but no Simple Simon can fake this kind of craftiness. (Erika Fredrickson)
So Many Dynamos play the History House (227 S. 3rd Street West) on Sunday, May 22, at 8PM.

List any gender tests you have done and update if you know what you're having!
Baking Soda Test: Place one tablespoon of baking soda in a cup. Pee on the baking soda (or in a separate cup and then pour into baking soda). If there is lots of fizz foam--BOY if it doesn't do much--GIRL! (They say you should be at least 10-11 weeks to try this one)
Red Cabbage Test
1. Cut half a red cabbage into little pieces.
2. Bring about 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the cabbage pieces and remove the pan from the heat to let the cabbage simmer for about 10 minutes until the water turns a deep purplish color
3. Strain out the cabbage pieces and keep the water. Add equal parts of cabbage indicator water and urine. Concentrated urine (first thing in the morning, for example) works best, but try several times throughout the day.
Watch for a color change! This test says that a pink/red color indicates a boy and a purple color indicates a girl. The results are the most accurate prior to 10 weeks pregnant.
This one has pictures! http://musing-mommy.blogspot.com/2011/06/red-cabbage-gender-test.html

Can Placental / Chorionic villi Location be used as Indicator for Fetal Gender at Six Weeks Gestation using 2-D and Color Flow Sonography?
Dr. SAAD RAMZI ISMAIL
Ultrasound Supervisor / Instructor
NWHC-High Level Hospital-Alberta
Pobox-1462, High Level, Alberta, T0H1Z0
The article is written by medical professionals so it may be a little hard to understand.... I had to read it a couple of times myself lol..... I am posting their findings as it partains to Ramzi's theory and gender predictions...
" Table one showed that the incidence of male fetuses in relation with right lateral placenta was 99.1% followed by fundal lateral anterior at 98.7% then by fundal right lateral posterior placenta at 98.5%, then by anterior right lateral placenta at 97.4%, and by the posterior right lateral placenta at 96.2%. The overall average of this incidence was 97.25% for male fetuses and this is very significant result.
Table two showed that the incidence of female fetuses in relationship with the fundal left lateral anterior was 98.7% followed by fundal left lateral posterior at 98.6%, then by left lateral placenta at 98.5%, then by anterior left lateral placenta at 97.7% and by the posterior left lateral placenta at 96.8%. The overall average of this incidence was 97.5% and it is very significant. This result might influence fetal gender if the IVF implantation was directed accordingly to the specific site for the specific gender desired. "
So ladies here is the rundown of the article.....
Right Lateral Placenta- 99.1% Fundal Left Lateral Anterior- 98.7%
Fundal Lateral Anterior- 98.7% Fundal Left Lateral Posterior- 98.6%
Fundal Right Lateral Posterior- 98.5% Left Lateral- 98.5%
Anterior Right Lateral- 97.4% Anterior Left Lateral- 97.7%
Posterior Right Lateral- 96.2% Posterior Left Lateral- 96.8%
There is a lot that has to be followed to get proper guess but when it's right it's right lol.
Reese thank you soo much for the details! So... is this something you and I can see, or would I need to ask a doctor? I had an ultrasound done at 6w2d and at 9w4d.
I think this study is sooo neat!

 Addition of Waste Glass to Self-Compacted Concrete: Critical Review http://ccsenet.org/journal/index.php/mas/article/view/59774 Utilization of waste glass at optimum amounts in concrete production not only provides significant environmental benefits such as reducing carbon dioxide emissions generated during the production process of cement but also enhances performance of the concrete and cement. The aim of this work was to review the effect of addition of waste glass on cement and concrete. The review showed that addition of glass powder enhances the compressive strength properties of the concrete product while using waste glass as aggregate showed that the slump flow increased with the increase of recycled glass content. On the other hand, the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength of the concrete were decreased with the increase in the recycled glass content. Mahmoud B. A.

The purpose of this study was to determine and compare the impact of different irrigation regimes (daily, weekly and every two weeks) combined with different water salinities (0.8, 2.5, 5.0 and, 7.0 dS m-1) on eggplant yield (Y) and evapotranspiration (ETc) in outdoor and greenhouse cultivation. Daily ETc values were measured by diurnal weighting of microlysimeters throughout the growing season (from May 19th to September 5th, 2012 and June 1st to September 22nd, 2013) placed in a plastic greenhouse and outdoor basins. Measurements showed apparent variations between different irrigation regimes×water salinity treatments, during the early growing season in both years. Both water deficit and salinity factors had significant effects on ETc, ECe, Y, fruit diameter and shoot dry weight in both environments. The applicability of Doorenbos-Kassam linear crop-water production function along with Maas-Hoffman salt tolerance model was investigated in the greenhouse and outdoor conditions. The Ky coefficient obtained for outdoor and greenhouse eggplants treatments were 0.97 and 1.03 in the first year and 0.91 and 0.93 in the second year, respectively. Higher sensitivity of greenhouse eggplants to salinity was later demonstrated for both years, obtaining higher values of b and lower values of ECethreshold in the greenhouse eggplants.

In current age, e-commerce does not just imply online buying and selling, but implies an efficient business throughout business levels, in which supply chain management can be regarded as the major pillar. The aim of this survey is to study effect of use of electronic banking services and important instruments of e-banking on performance and dimensions of supply chain performance at the first level of the SCOR model in electronics businesses. The present study is an applied research type in terms of aim, which is categorized as descriptive correlation in terms of data collection. The statistical population consists of electric supplies stores in Bushehr, of which 107 stores were selected as sample group using simple random sampling method. The questionnaire has been used as data collection instrument, that its validity has been confirmed through face and content validity through Cronbach's alpha. To analyze data, structural equation modeling using software Lisrel was used. Findings of the present study indicate that the use of e-banking services has a significant effect on performance of supply chain management. Further, among all devices of e-banking services except for POS (Point of Sale) and mobile banking, rest of the devices have a significant effect on performance of supply chain management.

The concept of the active contour model has been extensively utilized in the segmentation and analysis of images. This technology has been effectively employed in identifying the contours in object recognition, computer graphics and vision, biomedical processing of images that is normal images or medical images such as Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI), X-rays, plus Ultrasound imaging. Three colleagues, Kass, Witkin and Terzopoulos developed this energy, lessening "Active Contour Models" (equally identified as Snake) back in 1987. Being curved in nature, snakes are characterized in an image field and are capable of being set in motion by external and internal forces within image data and the curve itself in that order. The present study proposes the use of a hybrid image segmentation technique to acquire precise segmentation outcomes, while engaging "Alpha Shape (α-Shape)" in supposition to derive the original contour, followed by a refining process through engaging a conventional active contour model. Empirical results show high potential in the suggested computational method. Trials indicate that the primary contour is capable of being precisely set next to the objective contour and effectively have these objective contours extracted, devoid of any contour instigation. Some of the benefits associated with the novel hybrid contour include minimized cost of computation, enhanced anti-jamming capability, as well as enlarged utilization array of snake model.

Current research in terms of purpose is applicable and in terms of nature, it is descriptive and correlation kind and in terms of method, it is a survey research. The statistical population includes all employees who work in Saderat Bank of Tehran's west superintendence that the total number was 200 persons. The sample size was selected 131 persons according to Cochran's formula and the sampling method was simple random. In order to collect the data, the researcher-made questionnaire with 37 items in the form of 5-degree Likert spectrum from too high to too low was used. The face and content validity of questionnaire was confirmed by some of the experts and knowledgeable persons. Since Cronbach's Alpha coefficient for the variables of curriculums (0.875), training environment (0.942), work environment (0.759), personality characteristics of trainees (0.901), quality of in-service training plans (0.867) was obtained higher than 0.7, therefore the reliability of the questionnaire is confirmed. In order to analyze the data, one-sample t-test and two-variable linear Regression with spss software were used. The results indicated the variables of curriculums with β coefficient of 0.068 percent, training environment with β coefficient of 0.379 percent, work environment with β coefficient of 0.762 percent and personality characteristics of trainees with β coefficient of 0.241 percent have the power of predicting the dependent variable changes of in-service training plans quality. The adjusted explanation coefficient was 0.980 that indicated 4 independent variables of the research have been able to predict 98 percent of dependent variable changes.

Great Encounters (TCG)
Diamond & Pearl: Great Encounters is the name given to the fourth expansion of cards of the Diamond & Pearl era of the Trading Card Game.
Great Encounters' name is based on the Moonlit Pursuit subset of the fourth Japanese DP expansion, beginning its transition into English-language sets. The set contains 100 cards from Moonlit Pursuit/Dawn Dash, with two Dialga, two Palkia and two Darkrai (one of each a LV.X) being held back from Shining Darkness, completing the 106-card set. The cards from Moonlit Pursuit/Dawn Dash that were not included in Great Encounters were later printed in Majestic Dawn.
In order for the fifth Japanese DP set, Cry from the Mysterious/Temple of Anger, to be released closer to the eleventh Pokémon movie (Giratina and the Sky's Bouquet: Shaymin), the set's release was delayed by three months, making a six-month gap between the release of it and the previous set. In order to prevent such a large gap in the English-language releases, Moonlit Pursuit/Dawn Dash was separated between two sets: Great Encounters and Majestic Dawn.
Great Encounters is also the first set to include Darkrai, containing its Moonlit Pursuit card and both its Shining Darkness cards (including the LV.X variant). Cresselia is the only LV.X card in the set to originate from Moonlit Pursuit/Dawn Dash; Darkrai, Dialga and Palkia were held back from Shining Darkness.

I made these for our Superbowl party tomorrow. I kept a few out to have with dinner tonight. My immediate family LOVED them, so I'm sure they"ll be a HIT tomorrow!! I didn't use the horseradish and used all cheddar. Hopefully I'll have NO TROUBLE with my blood pressure tomorrow,though. GEAUX SAINTS!!
Happily I had already baked potatoes which were in the fridge, so making this was an absolute doddle! Rather than baked beans, I ALSO had in the fridge some chickpea curry, and used that instead, oh yum, very good, lol! Since I knew DD would not like the curry OR baked beans, I made hers with just the ham and cheese, using a little of the scooped out potato flesh to make a hearty potato. Extremely easy and delicious, definitely a make-again, and next time I will use the baked beans, since I am very partial to them! :D Thanks Rita, this treat was made for the French Country Kitchen Herb and Spice of the Month: January�

About Sum 41
Sum 41 hit worldwide radar in 1996 after tiny Ajax, Ontario proved unable to fully contain the foursome's mixture of punk-pop riffing, hip-hop poses, and toilet-bowl humor. Led by guitarist/vocalist Deryck Whibley, the band also included guitarist/vocalist Dave Baksh, bassist Cone McCaslin, and drummer Steve Jocz. Wooed by the boys' goofy antics and incendiary live show (and excited about the prospect of promoting their very own blink-182), Island put Sum 41 on the payroll in 1999. The Half Hour of Power EP followed, and Warped Tour dates got the word out. They returned in 2000 with the fun-filled full-length All Killer No Filler, and the singles "In Too Deep" and "Fat Lip" became staples of both modern rock radio and Total Request Live.
An extensive tour followed, and Sum 41 enjoyed their success the way all near-teenage boys would, with plenty of towel-snapping, groupie-loving, and self-deprecating, low-ball humor. In 2002, they returned to wax with Does This Look Infected? While the album was a bit harder-edged, it found the band just as jazzed as ever to mix punk-pop business with sophomoric pleasure: the video for "Hell Song" featured the fellas acting out a sort of rock star debauchery cage match with the aid of a few celebrity action figures. Metallica, Jesus Christ, and the Osbournes all made appearances in the hilarious clip.
It was not all fun and games, however, as their involvement in the charity group War Child Canada had Sum 41 lending a hand in the making of a 2004 documentary covering the effects of war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Five days into filming, fighting and gunfire suddenly erupted around them, and they barely escaped unharmed -- these events led to 2004's slightly more mature and serious effort, Chuck, named for the UN aid worker, Chuck Pelletier, who was instrumental in getting them to safety. The DVD Rocked: Sum 41 in Congo was released at the end of 2005 and the live album Go Chuck Yourself appeared the following March.
Guitarist Dave Baksh left the band during the spring of 2006 due to creative differences, going on to form the metal-punk outfit Brown Brigade. Sum 41 continued on as a trio, and their first album as such, Underclass Hero, appeared in July 2007. The band eventually returned to being a quartet, replacing Baksh with guitarist Tom Thacker, and began to work on a new album. That new album, entitled Screaming Bloody Murder, appeared in March of 2011. "Blood in My Eyes," a single from the album, was nominated for a Grammy that year. However, due to a series of back injuries for Whibley, Sum 41 would not return with new material for half a decade, despite their critical success.
During the break, Jocz left the band and was replaced by Street Drum Corps' Frank Zummo. Baksh also returned to the fold, just in time for Sum 41's comeback in 2016. The group signed with Hopeless Records and embarked on an international tour that included stops in China and a stint on that summer's Warped Tour. Their sixth LP, 13 Voices, featured the lead single "Fake My Own Death." ~ Johnny Loftus, Rovi

Skip to comments.Army Allows a Sikh Doctor to Serve Wearing a Turban
Posted on 10/24/2009 10:49:48 AM PDT by BGHater
The Army will make an exception to a decades-old rule and allow a Sikh doctor to serve without removing his turban and cutting his hair, an advocacy group said Friday.
The doctor, Capt. Kamaljeet Singh Kalsi of Riverdale, N.J., is the first Sikh to be allowed to go on active duty with a turban, beard and unshorn hair in more than 20 years, the New York-based Sikh Coalition said.
The decision does not overturn an Army policy from the 1980s that regulates the wearing of religious items, the acting deputy chief of staff, Maj. Gen. Gina Farrisee, wrote in a letter to Captain Kalsi dated Thursday and posted online by the Sikh Coalition.
Instead, the Armys decision follows a longstanding practice of deciding such requests on a case-by-case basis, the letter said. General Farrisee said the Army had weighed Captain Kalsis request against factors such as unit cohesion, morale, discipline, safety and/or health.
There is no indication that the overall policy is being reconsidered, said an Army spokeswoman, Jill Mueller, adding that she could not confirm that the Army had reached a decision in the case until she received word from her superiors that Captain Kalsi himself had been notified.
But the Sikh Coalition director, Amardeep Singh, said he was hopeful that the Army would announce a full policy shift.
This bodes well for the future, he said. My guess is the Armys going to be seeing a lot more Sikhs requesting to be a part of the Army.
Captain Kalsi, 32, is an emergency room doctor. He promised to serve in the Army in exchange for help paying for his medical training. A second, similar case that of Capt. Tejdeep Singh Rattan will be decided after he receives the results of his dental board exams, Mr. Singh said.

OK by me.
Sikhs aren't muslims.........
Sikh's aren't radical Muslims.
It's about time they wake up. We allowed this for years, and stopped it for really dumb reasons.
Sikh's are good people and very loyal. It doesn't hurt that they are good fighters, too. LOL
very slippery slope...just wait
I don't want to comment because sikhs are good people, but these kinds of "exceptions" to the uniform are a slippery slope that will eventually end up with some US soldiers wearing muslim garb while Christians will still have to conceal their cross under their t-shirt.
Makes sense. He's a doctor. Combat troops would be a different story with helmet safety issues.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I like Sihks but this is a very wimpy mistake by the pentagon.
To: BGHater
The ONLY reason this is being allowed is because of the very critical lack of doctors. Had the Army been flush with doctors this would not have happened and they would have been shown the door. Simple as that.
Yeah. At least the troops, seeing the turban, will be reassured in a way that they wouldn't otherwise be if they were to see a doctor of another race.
Sikhs aren't muslims in any way, actually they don't get along.
"Will female Islamic doctors and nurses be allowed to wear full burhka outfits in the military?"
If they're of the proper camoflage pattern.
Now I want to see an army digital camo burkha...
There goes the Military!!! You can't make rules for a certain GROUP!! EVERY GROUP WNTS SOMETHING!!!
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Sikhs are bada$$ warriors too, excellent fighters.
They are sort of the Klingons of Earth.
Fighting Buddhists from the sky?
I mean, it's really a pretty cool turban the guy's sporting, don't you think?
Just playing devil's advocate....when was the last time a US medical unit got gassed?
BTW, former infantry officer here. I'm honestly not sure how I come down on this yet. On the one hand, most of the Army's grooming regulations are fairly arbitrary, and could easily be modified on a more or less per-unit basis. Hell, SF and Rangers go on relaxed grooming standards all the time. On the other, there is the need for overall unit cohesion, and we don't want to get in the business of favoring one religion over another.
This irritates the hell out of me and I disagree completely, this is the military not a democracy. You either comply or you don't and if you don't your out.
Where does it end? Pedophiles ok as long as they fight well?
Good for 'em.
In the military, I've seen Mormons wear their religious underwear, Orthodox Jews wear their Tallit katan and non-Orthodox Jews wear a yamulke.
I've also seen plenty of personnel with shaving waivers.
So I say again, good for 'em. Even better if they're good doctors, too. The Army really could stand to get some better doctors.
BS. Disagree all you like, it's your right. I served (U.S. Army), side by side, with several Sikhs, and I'm damned proud of it.
Actually, how dare you even compare a Sikh with a pedophile, asshat!
Your ignorance is astounding.
What about the obvious compromise-a camouflage turban?
If there's one thing America is great at, it's compromise between disparate groups.
heck, I'd take a unit of gurkhas in burkhas over DUs in ACUs
OK by me. My eye doctor and surgeon is a Sikh and he can wear whatever he wants to. The Army will survive very nicely.
I believe the Brits are working on a turban with ballistic protection to be worn vice helmet in combat.
Ha, Muslims don't get along with any other group!
I've served with numerous different types of people as well, different backgrounds, religions, race, points of views etc like anyone else who's served but they all wore the same uniform and conformed to the same set of rules as everyone else.
Nothing wrong with Sikhs and there was no comparison to pedophiles. The point being made is where do you draw the line on what you'll make exceptions for. There should be no exceptions period and if anyone is joining up, Doctors or otherwise, then they know what they are getting into and should comply.
That's common sense not ignorance.
Let's say the army said no and the good doctor resigned his commission. Who would benefit under that scenario? The doctor? No. The physician starved army? No. who?
Got that right, FRiend.
One man doesn't make an Army and the Army would be doing the same thing it has for the last 234 years of the Army's existence without this exception. If the "good doctor" is truely a patriot and wants to serve then a haircut, shave and a standard uniform is not asking to much.
So I'll ask you, where do you draw the line on the exceptions you make? Why is fair to make an exception for this guy (relgious belief) and not others?
This website makes numerous comparisons between conservative values versus the "RINO's" and how we need to vote the RINO's out of office and maintain our conservative views. RINO's are people who have made exceptions to their conservative views and beliefs. Once it starts where does it end. That's the whole point.
We've been making religious exceptions for awhile now. CO status has been permitted for certain religions for all the time I can remember.
So I guess that means it'll never happen, right?
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Didn't say that. Just making a point, albeit indirectly, that he's not exactly in a high-risk MOS. heck, is the guy even *issued* a promask?
Like another poster stated, shaving profiles (sometimes permanent) get granted all the time.

At a lively Sunday march in support of former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, chants of "lock her up," "Hillary for Prison" signs and t-shirts and calls for indictment were common among the most ardent supporters of Mr. Sanders, who arrived in Philadelphia to make their voices heard to the delegates attending the Democratic National Convention.Prediction: Philadelphia will see much more turmoil and protest than Cleveland. Should be some fun TV watching this week!

It's deja vu all over again!
The similarities between the Republican and Democratic conventions are a bit spooky. Consider: - Both conventions have serious divisions over nominees with unprecedented disapproval ratings. - Major figures get booed off the stage -- Ted Cruz was booed for failing to endorse the Republican nominee, and the DNC chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, was repeatedly booed for her behind-the-scene efforts to sabotage Bernie Sanders' primary. - At the Republican convention, Chris Christie cited Hillary Clinton's scandals, and after each, the crowd roared back, "Lock her up!" Of course, you'd expect that from Republicans. But many Democrats are ALSO demanding that Hillary be punished:

This is what will sink the Empire
Remember the USSR, that utopian model of an inevitable future? It collapsed in 1991, a victim of its own hidebound ideology. Its socialist economy gave workers little motivation to work, and central control made it impossible to respond to local changes in the vast Soviet economy. The only reason the USSR lasted as long as it did was a totalitarian government that held its captive population in fear, fear amplified by the threat of external enemies. Arms reduction treaties reduced that fear, and the Politburo's clumsy attempts at loosening citizen surveillance unleashed a flood of open criticism of the Soviet System. The rest is history. The DC Empire is also dying of its own egalitarian ideology. The latest case in point comes from Colorado, where Dana Zzyym [sic] is fighting for his inalienable right to be addressed as "intersex":
A Colorado Navy veteran who identifies as neither male nor female has taken the State Department to court for refusing to administer a gender-neutral passport. U.S. District Judge R. Brooke Jackson heard arguments in the lawsuit this week, according to a clerk of the court. No ruling has been issued. Dana Zzyym, 58, was born with ambiguous sex characteristics and identifies as intersex, according to Lambda Legal, which is handling the case. Zzyym uses the gender-neutral pronouns "they" and "them" and wants a passport that has an "X" for gender alongside "male" and "female." The State Department, which oversees the passport program, sent a statement to CNN this week explaining that its policy, "like other federal, state and local government agencies, requires the use of binary (M or F) sex identifiers."I wonder what it'll cost to change public and private databases to accommodate this latest madness from the "gender identity" movement. Whatever it is, as soon as that project's completed, another loopy cause will demand even more acknowledgement and endorsement of people's fantasies, such as the right to be recognized as an elf or dragon. Glory, glory hallelujah!

Mohamed had help
It turns out that Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, who attacked and killed 84 participants at a Bastille Day celebration with a truck, had long plotted his crime. Worse, he had help, and the implications are frightening:
The five suspects were brought before anti-terrorism judges yesterday and charged. They are 22-year-old Franco-Tunisian Ramzi A., 37-year-old Tunisian Chokri C., 40-year-old Tunisian Mohamed Oualid G., 38-year-old Albanian Artan H., and his wife Enkeledja Z. who holds both French and Albanian nationality. None of the suspects were known to intelligence services, and only Ramzi A., who was born in Nice, had a criminal record for robbery and drug offences.Big deal, you say. They were Muslims. We figured that. But what makes this development scary is the last line of the report: "None of the suspects were known to intelligence services ..." Lesson learned: Potential terrorists cannot be vetted out. Mao Tse-tung once observed that "The guerrilla must move amongst the people as a fish swims in the sea." In other words, a guerilla fighter -- or "terrorist," depending on whose side they're on -- MUST HAVE THE SUPPORT OF THE LOCAL POPULATION. Or at least a significant portion of that population. In fact, modern counterinsurgency strategy aims at separating the guerrilla from his support base in the population. And for the West, there's only one way to do that, and that is to STOP opening the gates to Muslim immigration, and start enforcing immigration laws. Anything else is meaningless. "But that's DISCRIMINATION! There MUST be an alternative!" Right on both counts, because there IS an alternative:

Bottom line, it means "Race does not exist, except when it does." Got that? The Huff n' Puff Post explains it all in the latest article on politicized science in the DC Empire:
The race concept should be removed from genetics research for the following reasons: Genetic methods do not support the classification of humans into discrete races, [and] racial assumptions are not good biological guideposts. Races are not genetically homogenous and lack clear-cut genetic boundaries. And because of this, using race as a proxy to make clinical predictions is about probability. ... We also believe that a variable so mired in historical and contemporary controversy has no place in modern genetics. Race has both scientific and social meanings that are impossible to tease apart, and we worry that using such a concept in modern genetics does not serve the field well.Translation: Open borders must be imposed because it makes no sense to regulate who can and cannot settle in the US. (Guess these folks have never watched CSI, where you can take a blob from a rotted corpse and identify its DNA so precisely that scientists -- that is, real scientists, rather than Lysenko wannabes -- can determine the race and sex of the deceased, as well as reconstruct its facial features.) Okay, so race does not exist. However ...
Race also, of course, has social meanings. And by suggesting that race is not a useful tool for classifying humans, we do not mean to say that somehow race is not real. Race is, of course, real. We live in a country and a world where skin color has long been used as a way to systematize discrimination and brutality. But that is not what we are arguing in this paper. We are arguing simply that race is not a useful tool to study human genetic diversity and that there is potential harm in doing so. We acknowledge in the paper that using race as a political or social category to study racism and its biological effects, although fraught with challenges, remains necessary.Translation: When it comes to continuing to enforce affirmative action, racial set-asides, and blaming all minority ills on "White Privilege," race most definitely exists. There. That settles that.
"You're on fire, stupid!"
Members of the Revolutionary Communist Party tried to set an American flag on fire outside the Republican National Convention in Cleveland last night. Ironically -- but predictably, knowing these clowns -- they set themselves on fire. When police started spraying these geniuses with fire extinguishers, this elite vanguard of the oppressed ran away, thinking it was pepper spray. Police had to yell at some of them to stop so they could extinguish the flames. These neo-communists sported black shirts with the motto "Revolution nada menos!" which means "Revolution, nothing less!" Talk about incendiary rhetoric.

Liberals are shrieking about Melania Trump's supposed plagiarism of Michelle Obama's 2008 speech. That's because liberals really, really despise those who steal other people's writings.

Liberals said this would never happen
When the Supreme Soviet, I mean, Supreme Court ruled that same-sex "marriage" was a right guaranteed by some previously unknown sentence in the Constitution, all the good and wise people assured us it could never lead to group marriage. Don't look now, but the de facto legalization of "polyamory" has already established a beachhead in Portland, Oregon:
Polyamory is the practice of intimate relationships involving more than two people with the consent of everyone involved. In recent years, polyamory is working its way to becoming a household term. Researchers have estimated that 4 to 5% of Americans practice some form of consensual non-monogamy. A 2014 blog post by Psychology Today revealed that 9.8 million people have agreed to allow satellite lovers in their relationships, which includes poly couples, swinging couples and others practicing sexual non-monogamy. And in Portland – home to swingers' clubs, the most strip bars per capita, and annual porn festivals – it seems you can't throw a stone without finding a poly relationship. Although there's no official data supporting an exact number, various Meetup groups boast a few thousand members each, while other Facebook groups have hundreds.Right. We were also promised the Civil Rights Act of 1964 would never lead to racial quotas, and today we're bogged down in a tangle of set-asides, diversity goals, and disparate impact lawsuits. When are we going to quit believing politicians?

The Fire Spreads
We are now witnessing the fruits of the Civil Rights Revolution. Hatred of everything associated with traditional America is tearing us apart, and leaving a trail of carnage in its wake. Consider the latest pre-mortem from Heather Mac Donald:
The difference between the 1960s and today is that the hatred of law enforcement and of whites is being stoked by the highest reaches of the establishment. Universities sometimes seem like little else than factories of desperately ginned-up racial grievance. That the cop killer in Dallas and apparently in Baton Rouge as well came out of the military is an indication that the happy talk about how the military is an engine of racial reconciliation is naïve. The country has been pretending that the main source of racism today comes from whites. Anyone who has spent time in the inner city and even more middle-class black precincts—such as college campuses—knows differently.We're in the grip of our own version of the Chinese Cultural Revolution. That began in 1966 when Mao sought to expand his power by removing "impure elements" within the Chinese Communist party. Mao and his cultish followers organized purges against "revisionists" who emphasized technical expertise over party dogma. Cultural treasures were destroyed in the name of "liberating" China from its past (sound familiar?), and over a million lost their lives. Is it too late for us to stop this escalating insanity?
Brother of Pakistan's Qandeel Baloch: I'm 'proud' of strangling my sister
This is why nations -- REAL nations, as opposed to extended stay motels -- regulate who can enter their territories. Some cultures are simply incompatible, as this story from Pakistan illustrates:
The brother of Pakistani social media star, Qandeel Baloch, says he's proud he killed his sister, claiming he did it because "girls are born to stay home." The 25 year-old Qandeel was strangled Friday at her family home in the city of Multan in the Pakistani province of Punjab. After going on the run, her brother was later arrested. In his confession video, he expresses no regret. "I am proud of what I did. I drugged her first, then I killed her," Waseem Baloch says. "She was bringing dishonor to our family." Waseem goes on to remark that he thinks he will be remembered with pride and honor, and by bringing honor to his family he has earned his place "in heaven." "Girls are born to stay home and follow traditions. My sister never did that," he says.And we can't dismiss this act as an isolated incident; it's ingrained in Pakistan's culture:
According to the Independent Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, violence against women is rampant, with as many as 212 women being killed in the name of 'honor' in the first five months of 2016.Globalists and their leftist cheerleaders pretend cultural differences are insignificant. Reality teaches otherwise.

Baton Rouge Massacre
Three Baton Rouge, Louisiana, policemen are dead, and three are in the hospital, one in critical condition, as a result of an "ambush" by Gavin Eugene Long of Kansas City, Missouri. No word yet whether Long was enflamed by irresponsible BLM propaganda or by the one-sided tut-tutting of our Chief Executive. We need sane and moderate voices in Baton Rouge -- individuals or organizations that will hose down the red-hot rhetoric that has inspired nothing but more distrust and violence. Wait, I have a new Google alert coming in: New Black Panther Party forms Baton Rouge chapter Uh-oh...

Our obsession with "democracy" is dangerous
Obama, like every other gullible Western leader, has sided with Erdogan's Islamist government against the Turkish military. Per Obama, we must "support the democratically elected government of Turkey." No, we don't, not if we want to avoid giving ISIS the Islamist caliphate it yearns for. Since the days of Ataturk, the Turkish military has been a force for a secular, pro-Western Turkey. Now that the only brake toward radical Islamization has been shattered, there's nothing to stop the revival of a new, more powerful Islamist caliphate.
FBI has found no evidence that Orlando shooter targeted Pulse because it was a gay club
When Omar Mateen took hostages and shot to death 49 people at a nightclub in Orlando, the usual suspects ran over each other trying to paint the attack as anything but what it was: an act of Islamic jihad. No, said the gun-grabbers, it's the fault of guns! No, said the SJWs, white privilege caused it. And Omid Safi, the director of the Islamic Studies Center at Duke University, blathered that Mateen had somehow been infected by racist, homophobic Southerners. Here's Safi's email: firstname.lastname@example.com But now that the FBI has conducted its thorough investigation, all the breathless speculation and finger-pointing has to be judged by the cold, hard facts. Here's the bottom line of the FBI's report on Omar Mateen:
The FBI has found no evidence so far that Omar Mateen, who killed 49 people and wounded more than 53 at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, chose the popular establishment because of its gay clientele, U.S law enforcement officials said. ... Officials said there is nothing to suggest that he attempted to cover up his tracks by deleting files. They also added he did not make gay slurs during the shooting spree inside the club, based on witnesses. In a 911 call, Mateen pledged allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State and did not make any homophobic comments. FBI Director James B. Comey has said Mateen was radicalized and previously been the target of a terrorism investigation.But then, people blinded by ideology never pay attention to mere facts. They have Greater Truths to promote.

Quote of the day
"When we get in each other's faces, we get on each other's nerves. It's time to get out of each other's faces. Westerners and Muslims don't agree on the basics of social order and don't want to live under the same rules. That shouldn't be a problem because that's what separate countries are for. We should stop occupying their countries and stop letting them move to ours." - Steve Sailer

At Least 75 Dead in Nice After Grenade-Filled Truck Plows Into Crowd
We didn't have to wait very long for the next Islamist terror attack:
ISIS is celebrating the apparent terrorist attack in Nice, France, on Thursday as retaliation for the death of Abu Omar al-Shishani—the terror group's so-called "minister of war"—who was killed earlier this year by coalition forces while fighting in Iraq. At least 75 people were killed and dozens more were injured when a truck barreled through a large crowd of people celebrating Bastille Day, a French holiday commemorating the storming of the famous Parisian fortress in 1789, an important milestone in the French Revolution. The driver of the truck reportedly was killed by French authorities.That's it. Have we had enough? If the West is to survive, it's time to quit waiting like cattle at the stockyard, and start defending ourselves. It's time to stop all immigration from Middle Eastern countries and start deporting all illegal aliens. That is, unless you LIKE news stories like this. And there will be more.

Transgender woman arrested for voyeurism at Target
Wait a minute -- we were assured by the Wise Ones that this sort of thing would never happen:
A transgender Idaho Falls woman was arrested Tuesday on one count of felony voyeurism for a report that she took pictures of another woman changing clothes in a dressing room at Target in Ammon. Shauna Patricia Smith, 43, is in custody in the Bonneville County Jail under the name Sean Smith, according to the jail's active inmate roster. A Bonneville County Sheriff's Office news release said the suspect also is known as Sean P. Smith. Sheriff's deputies responded Monday to the store after a woman reported that someone was taking pictures of her while she was inside a dressing room trying on clothes, the release said. The victim noticed the subject reaching over the wall with a cellphone taking pictures. The victim confronted the suspect who then fled the store on foot, the release said.So -- a person with XY chromosomes acts like a man, no matter what he's wearing or what he calls himself. And we thought the magic words "transgender woman" would change a man's chromosomes into XX. But nature makes the rules, not SJWs.
This day in history
In 1863, the Anti-Draft Riots broke out in New York City. Angered by the provision in the draft law that allowed the rich to buy their way out of military service, the rioters also targeted abolitionists and blacks. "Many blacks were beaten to death, and a black orphanage was burned, leaving hundreds of children homeless. Business ceased, and robbing and looting flourished." These riots inspired the Leonardo DiCaprio/Daniel Day-Lewis classic Gangs of New York.

Majority Disapprove of Decision Not to Charge Clinton
The Empire's veneer of legitimacy just took another major hit with Hillary's email scandal:
A majority of Americans disapprove of the FBI's recommendation not to charge Hillary Clinton with a crime over her handling of email while secretary of state, and a similar number in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll say the issue leaves them worried about how she would handle her responsibilities as president if elected. ... 56 percent disapprove of FBI Director James Comey's recommendation not to charge Clinton, while just 35 percent approve. Similarly, 57 percent say the incident makes them worried about how Clinton might act as president if she is elected, with most very worried about it. Just 39 percent feel the issue isn't related to how she would perform as president.56%. That's a landslide, folks.
Black police officer confronts BLM
If we can get past the brainless SJW slogans and the rigid ideology of the Cultural Marxists, we might just cut through to the truth. Step One: Ignore the pro-big-government propaganda from the corporate media, and keep counter-punching with the facts. A Black policeman from Florida named Jay Stalien does just that in this riveting post:
Complaint: More black people get arrested than white boys. Fact: Black People commit a grossly disproportionate amount of crime. Data from the FBI shows that Nationwide, Blacks committed 5,173 homicides in 2014, whites committed 4,367. Chicago's death toll is almost equal to that of both wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, combined. Chicago's death toll from 2001–November, 26 2015 stands at 7,401. The combined total deaths during Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003-2015: 4,815) and Operation Enduring Freedom/Afghanistan (2001-2015: 3,506), total 8,321. Complaint: Blacks are the only ones getting killed by police, or they are killed more. Fact: As of July 2016, the breakdown of the number of US Citizens killed by Police this year is, 238 White people killed, 123 Black people killed, 79 Hispanics, 69 other/or unknown race. Fact: Black people kill more other blacks than Police do, and there are only protest and outrage when a cop kills a black man. University of Toledo criminologist Dr. Richard R. Johnson examined the latest crime data from the FBI's Supplementary Homicide Reports and Centers for Disease Control and found that an average of 4,472 black men were killed by other black men annually between Jan. 1, 2009, and Dec. 31, 2012. Professor Johnson's research further concluded that 112 black men died from both justified and unjustified police-involved killings annually during this same period.You definitely want to read the whole thing.

Time to outlaw "Black Lives Matter" terrorists
Dallas terror attack:
The man who shot 12 police officers, killing five, at a Black Lives Matter protest in downtown Dallas on Thursday night has been named as Micah Xavier Johnson, a 25-year-old with no criminal history or ties to terror groups. Johnson, from Mesquite, Texas, a 20 minute drive from Dallas, reportedly told law enforcement that he was a US Army Veteran, and claimed to have acted alone, countering reports that as many as four gunmen were involved in the massacre. 'The suspect said he was upset about Black Lives Matter. He said he was upset about the recent police shootings of black suspects. He said he was upset at white people. The suspect stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers,' Dallas Police Chief David Brown revealed at a 7:30am press conference.So -- a militant who's been radicalized by "Black Lives Matter" propaganda goes to a BLM rally where he murders five white officers. How open-and-shut is that case? We need to throw the book at this domestic terror group for inciting violence.
Dallas Police Ambush Suspect "Wanted to Kill White People"
Here's what happened in Dallas last night:
A suspect who was killed by police after snipers shot 12 Dallas officers, five fatally, "wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," police chief David Brown said. Brown said the suspect, who he would not identify, told a hostage negotiator that he was upset about the Black Lives Matter movement and the recent police shootings of black men elsewhere in the U.S. "The suspect stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," Brown said. "The suspect stated that he was not affiliated with any groups and he stated that he did this alone."And here's why it happened, in the words of Barack Obama from yesterday:
"Although I am constrained in commenting on the particular facts of these cases, I am encouraged that the U.S. Department of Justice has opened a civil rights investigation in Baton Rouge, and I have full confidence in their professionalism and their ability to conduct a thoughtful, thorough, and fair inquiry. "But regardless of the outcome of such investigations, what's clear is that these fatal shootings are not isolated incidents. They are symptomatic of the broader challenges within our criminal justice system, the racial disparities that appear across the system year after year, and the resulting lack of trust that exists between law enforcement and too many of the communities they serve."When the powers that be, backed by a gleefully complicit media, hype every incident of white-on-black violence and then moralize about "racial disparities," the natural response will be simmering resentment. Domestic violence is the inevitable repercussion of such a climate. So congratulations to you all, including the SPLC, Al Sharpton, newspaper editors, SJWs, and President Obama. The poisonous brew you've been spicing up and marinating for years has done its work. And this is the result:

Nationalism comes roaring back
You know why the left will ultimately lose? Because their war is against human nature. Humans are tribal beings; they need a sense of identity, of belonging. The leftist agenda is so anti-human, it cannot survive without a big government to impose it. Nationalism, on the other hand, continues to spring up despite all the establishment's attempts to eradicate it. Check out these young Russian nationalists in Ukraine:
In the self-declared Donetsk People's Republic, the breakaway region of eastern Ukraine, training for war starts young. Teenage girls wearing Russian military uniforms spend Saturday afternoons taking apart and putting together Kalashnikovs. The average Russian soldier needs more than 10 seconds to break one down; 15-year-old Katerina, who declined to give her last name, takes just 9 seconds. With a blindfold on. "Since I was little I preferred playing football with boys to playing with dolls," said Katerina with a smile, before getting serious. "This is our history. … We remember our history. We remember who we are." They are young Ukrainians who want to separate from Ukraine and join Russia. They call themselves rebels, although Ukraine prefers "separatists."Rebels. Separatists. My suggestion is "young patriots." Need a little pick-me-up? Hit the play button on the following video of Icelanders performing the ultimate 'Viking war chant' for their soccer team: How can bloodless leftist abstractions compete with THAT? They can't. No one in this crowd wanted to recite multicultural drivel. They wanted the red meat of raw Icelandic pride.
